Proceeding contribution from Graham Stuart (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 17 November 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill on Education and Skills Bill.


Education and Skills Bill

The Minister is right to say that we all aspire for the diploma to be successful. That does not stop us, as responsible Members of Parliament, noticing what is happening with them. There has been very low take-up; in fact, in the East Riding of Yorkshire one would struggle to find many students who are undertaking a diploma. That is the issue. We have to look at the world as it is. We need reassurance from the Minister that he can take steps to rectify the issue.
